Hopkirk (Deceased² ): RIP Kenneth Cope.

[tim]

"Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased)" was one of those ITC series alongside "The Champions" and "The Persuaders" that I really enjoyed when I was a child and Kenneth Cope was one of the best.

Kenneth Cope, star of Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased) and Coronation Street, dies aged 93

Saw parts of a few repeated episodes on that box in the corner ...
I hadn't tied those two aspects of his career together.
RIP KC, you were quite a character !
